Hello

Suppose I hace a stand_animation and a run_animation
Dos it mean that can I create an "on the fly"acceleration_animation, blendig them togheter ?
I so can I expect realistic results

Do you mean sort of an increasing speed run? You dont need to blend the animations, which 3DGS cant do. Heres how you animate (I think) :

Code:

---

anm_increase += 1.5 * time;
anm_speed += anm_increase * time;
anm_speed %= 100;
ent_animate(player,"run",anm_speed,ANM_CYCLE); //num_frames is the frames
                                               //you want to play : "run"

I didnt test this code so it probably wont work. What happens is the var controlling animation speed [anm_speed] is increased slowly over time, making for a run which slowly accelerates. But this only animation, not movement. Also, the variables anm_increase, anm_speed, and the pointer "player" must be defined.

Someone please correct me if Im wrong.

However, if you are thinking of animation interpolation, yes 3DGS does do that. Interpolation is when frames in between the frames you manully created are automatically filled in. Obviously, the more frames you make the better, but interpolation does help alot in making sure the animations are always smooth.

You both should open the manual and seach for ent_blend.
This is a beginners question and should be asked in the beginners forum.

And yes, gamestudio can blend animations.

Wow! I didnt know that! Useful information, I get more of it every day.

I have a fantastic blending system going, however the code looks a bit crazy. I didn't create it, but it works once you figure out how to implement your player animation/physics stuff. What is provided at the link is lacking that. It's a lot of code, but it covers several different player animation states. You can probably simplify if you don't require all of the various modes.
